PHP Community

Anyway, to answer your original question, I don’t use TailwindCSS for everything, but I have used it with vanilla PHP for a few things.

Ah! It’s “.NET Core” I was thinking about that’s a framework with that name. So, not in PHP-land at all.

I use the phrase “PHP core” to mean the C code that PHP is written in, so I wasn’t sure what you meant by “core PHP,” but I was pretty sure you didn’t mean the C code. I also think the word “core” is used in the name of a framework, but I can’t remember which one.

Ah. You mean plain PHP without a framework? Got it.

I’m serious. Is it a new framework?

What is “core PHP?”

Dear @phpc.social this year marks the 20th year of PHP Conference Brazil, the main #PHP Conference in LATAM.

We'd love if you could record a short 5-10s vídeo message showing your support. Publish it mentioning the event handles (footer of phpconference.com.br) and/or send it to me directly.

New #PHP RFC just dropped:

What are some young OSS #PHP projects that have that have the potential to become great?

I want to discover some hidden gems that would be worth sponsoring.

Trying something new this weekend: building my very first Symfony app! Let’s see where this goes 🚀

PHP devs, If you're not using PHPStan for static analysis, you're missing out. 🤞

It catches errors before they happen! 🛠️

I have just caught up with all @larabelles.com emails and urgent to-dos, and it feels wonderful!

I mean, the to-do list is still very long, but I feel like I've made progress, and I'll definitely sleep better tonight.

Feeling good - at least until tomorrow morning 😅.

I’m flummoxed. Have you seen this behavior in ramsey/uuid & can help reproduce it?

If you’ve seen it in symfony/uid, also chime in—it’ll need to be fixed in both libraries. So far, it sounds like it only affects ramsey/uuid.

Laminas Project - Laminas MVC Is Retiring Laminas MVC Is Retiring

I worked with Zend Framework since 2007. It eventually became Laminas. Now it's retiring. It was a fun few decades. Mezzio is so much better though, so I agree with this decision.

Core memories thinking of PHP: - PhpMyAdmin and phpBB(2) - Using an index.php that includes another script based on a query param. To not allow direct execution of the script, the index.php would define a constant and the script check for its existence. - register_globals and magic_quotes_gpc and how long it took to eventually get it deprecated. #php #JetBrainsPHPverse2025
